![]() Spoony (vo): I don't think I've seen a poster inspire less confidence in a movie than the three headed monster of Freddie Prinze, Jr., Saffron Burrows, and the crown fucking jewel, Matthew Lillard, the skin peelingly annoying jackhole from Hackers. After a test screen, we cut back to Spoony, facepalming and sad) You know that old saying, "never judge a book by it's cover?" Well fuck you, that's books, (holding the dvd) not movies, and I don't think you could've found a better poster to scare an audience away from a theater if you had covered the building in a plastic sheet, and set up a half-mile military perimeter warning people of an anthrax attack! Spoony: It was one of the greatest ensemble casts in science fiction history, with two great games with plots easily adaptable into the big screen, so when the news broke that there was gonna be a Wing Commander movie, I was ecstatic! (holding the DVD of the movie) I couldn't see how they could possibly screw this-(he then looks at the dvd and goes into a screaming fit. Wilson), and you got to play as Mark fucking Hamil! That's like every kid's dream! Like Malcolm McDowell, John Rhys-Davies, fucking Biff from Back to the Future (Thomas F. It had an intense and memorable musical score, and best of all, it was loaded from top to bottom with an ensemble cast of recognizable A-list actors. The gameplay was excellent, fast-paced, customizable to the player's comfort level and exciting. It was a basic but well told space epic that looked and felt like a classic science fiction movie. Spoony (vo): But the Wing Commander series did everything right. By and large, those titles had no budget and no star power, silly stories, and their gameplay design was inferior, no matter how impressive seeing full motion video might have been at the time. Once you put it in, you quickly realized you weren't playing a very good game and you weren't watching a very good movie. Spoony: And after playing Wing Commander, it was pretty easy to see why most other FMV titles failed. Spoony (vo): Which remains to this day the greatest and most immersive space sim and interactive movie experience ever created. The extremely rare exception to that rule being the Wing Commander series. Spoony: I've done a ton of reviews on games from that ill-fated era when CD-ROMs were new and chock full of crappy full motion video, and there's been a lot of reviews with good reason almost all of those games were disastrously and hilariously bad. Elite is available perfectly legally.(After the intro for the Spoony Experiment, we cut to Spoony in his room) part 2 almost ruined my perspective of privateer i tought 1 could be bad as 2 but when i played 1 here on gog i understand that luckely it isnt true that part 2 is forgetteble and 1 is still the best. Im a bit cynical if it comes to privateer i remember when i bought the game i was thinking it was 1 with beter graphics because i never could play 1, I only could read reviews about it and i remember that it was a game on itself to get that bugger running, It had its own will sometimes it run but crashes later on it it didnt run at all, the trading system was bad as well you hired chargo ships to carry your junk. Hercufles: its too bad elite isnt availeble legaly i hope it comes on gog as well but for that time we have privateer.
